Property Presentation

One morning you woke up and said to yourself” I am going to sell my home for the best price possible and I am starting a new chapter in my life”.

What is involved? There are many areas involved in selling your home. I will be talking about a number of areas in my next couple of blogs. This blog is about how to present your home to achieve the best possible price?

This book “How to Sell Your Home for more” is invaluable to the sellers. Quote on page 1, “I discovered very early in selling homes, that a little time taken to enhance the visual appeal of a property substantially increases the chance of the seller achieving a better selling price”. If you would like a free copy please contact me on dianne@diannerayrealty.com.au or phone me on 0408 034 080.

The first 10 seconds when buyers enter your property is so important. The buyer will either like what they see or be turned off very quickly. Their eyes and mind are being made up – if interested or not?

Your first step is to walk around your home, internally and externally and make a checklist up, for jobs to be done before putting your home on the market. Such as internally; de-clutter, move furniture around or pack it away, clean the carpets, repair broken tiles, paint marks on walls, clean windows and more. Externally make sure the front of your home is perfect; paint steps or decking if needed, plant new plants and add mulch, weed the garden, trim trees and more if required.

You now have a checklist and all the jobs have to be ticked off and you have made a deadline date for all this to be completed. Once this has been completed it is time to contact a number of agents to give you an appraisal of your home and to come up with a recommended selling price that both you and the agent are happy with.
